There are so many wonderful architectural styles in Pinecrest, from the ‘ranch style’ so common in the 1950’s and 1960’s, to the Mediterranean style so woven into our South Florida culture, and more recently we had the infusion of Florida Vernacular and it’s Key West-style sister, and of course now we have the invasion of the sleek Modern cube. This beautiful home that I recently sold in North Pinecrest was so special because it had a style all of it’s own. There was still a little hint of the original ranch style, but with near 9′ ceilings and very clean lines there was a strong sense of modernity, and with a back drop of terracotta floors a warm sense of Spanish prevailed. Nestled on an epic acre, this ‘home sweet home’ will see years of fun and run, I’m sure. Congratulations to the Buyers, and to some very special Sellers:) It was the perfect match.

For the Mid-Century Modern enthusiast, look no more! Appreciate and love this classic Mid-Century Mod house that would make Alfred Browning Parker smile! Hallmark MCM appointments like sun-filled clerestory windows, polished terrazzo floors, exposed wood-beam ceilings, and wonderfully spacious walls for art will delight the MCM buyer!

A beautifully updated uber sleek kitchen, magnificent social spaces for entertaining, and an outdoor oasis with pool, chickee hut, and N/S tennis court are for all to enjoy. Nestled on an enchanting 1.03 acres, this exceptional paradise is home to over a dozen exotic palm species, a masterful collection of fruit trees, and a beautiful flora reflective of Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden.

I’ve never had so many ‘newcomers’ to Miami wanting to lease! I just completed the eighth Lease of 2016, and if they all love Miami like I love Miami and decide to call our beautiful city ‘home’, they will be next year’s Buyers! In the last few weeks we have made a lot of Landlords and Tenants happy in Coral Gables, Pinecrest, Palmetto Bay, and South Miami!

Miami is one of the few cities where real estate agents are able to work in both the sales and leasing arenas. A competent and knowledgeable local realtor should be able to transition between the two markets and provide everyone with a home, be it permanent or temporary. It’s a natural progression to desire to acclimate and ‘test the waters’ in a new city before buying and I am happy to be part of the process!

Fall in love with this wonderfully refreshing, architecturally significant home on an epic property – perhaps the most beautiful canal-front parcel on one of the most enchanting streets in north Pinecrest, a stroll away from Coral Pine Park. This very special residence, which originated in 1953, was thoughtfully re-constructed in 1998 by the current owner has fabulous near 10′ ceilings, magnificent social spaces, a marvelous master suite, and one of the most exceptional Live Oak trees I have ever seen!

The Real Deal’s recent article, “After the game: NBA stars shoot for wins in real estate” captured a day in the off-season life of Luol Deng and 10 other NBA players who attended a symposium on real estate investing organized by the National Basketball Players Association (with guest speaker, Miami’s own Don Peebles).

Miami Heat players have traditionally invested in some serious local real estate with those investing in Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, and Pinecrest appreciating the ability to maintain a relatively low-key lifestyle (for local celebrities anyway).

Coconut Grove, Coral Gables, and Pinecrest have been home to a host of Heat players including Dwayne Wade (he began his career in Pinecrest), Alonzo Mourning (he migrated from Coconut Grove to Gables Estates, and is now settled in Pinecrest), Shane Battier, Ray Allen, Dan Majerle, Brian Grant (my all time fav), past and present coaches Eric Spoelstra and Pat Riley, and LeGone James, who’s bayfront home is under contract.

The beauty of these neighborhoods is that you can see these guys regularly at the Last Carrot, Greenstreet’s Cafe, MCycle, local gas stations, movie theaters, and even Food Spot, and no one blinks an eye (but I do stare sometimes).

Wouldn’t it be great if Luol Deng moved into the Grove, Gables, or Pinecrest! I have the perfect place for him to call home:

For the Buyer who wants it all! Indulge yourself with this completely and beautifully updated home in Pinecrest’s premier gated community with 24-hour security, a community park, and the finest public and private schools moments away. It’s the very definition of ‘turn key’!

Once again EWM Realty International ranks #1 in the number of homes sold over $1,000,000 in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties. With $417,320,000 in sales of million dollar+ homes in the first quarter of 2015 Buyers and Sellers have chosen EWM over the competition! Bringing it down to a more simple reality, EWM Realtors sold a home in the $1mil+ range every 15 hours! I consider myself fortunate to be in such good company.

All indications of sales and pending sales in the neighborhoods I specialize in – Coral Gables, South Miami, Coconut Grove, Ponce/Davis corridor, Pinecrest, and Palmetto Bay – are pointing in the same direction for the second quarter! If I were to predict which $1,000,000+ properties I have listed were going to sell this quarter I would bank on these timeless, outstanding residences:

What do the UM, Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez, the Dade County parks, public works and transit departments, and the Mayors of Miami, Coral Gables, and South Miami have in common? They are avid supporters of Meg Daly’s “Underline” dream of transforming the existing, practically unused paved path that runs from Brickell to Dadeland (under the Metrorail), into a beautiful, functional, wildly successful linear park for cyclists and pedestrians.

‘Friends of the Underline’ see gardens, parks, and playgrounds connecting neighborhoods, schools, and workplaces. Meg’s genius vision + tireless grassroots effort will not only give Miami another layer of outdoor living, but it will make it possible for kids and adults to walk or cycle to work, play, and school SAFELY. Can you imagine what a boost the Underline will give the Metrorail? OMG, why isn’t everyone taking the Metrorail to the American Airlines Arena, Perez Art Museum, and the Corporate Run? What if we all walked the Underline and hopped on the Metrorail to get us most of the way to Art Basel and Wynwood? It took me nearly 2 hours to get into the Miami Beach Convention Center this year.

As a realtor primarily selling homes in Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, South Miami, Pinecrest, and Palmetto Bay I spend A LOT of time in my car and that means a lot of time on US1. I am so excited to watch the transformation of that space; it will be such a joy to look over and see a beautiful, vibrant, happy scene under the Metrorail, and I can’t wait to walk on it!

PS, before Meg Daly fell off her bike, broke her elbows, rendered herself unable to drive and had to get to physical therapy in the Grove via Metrorail and walking (that’s where she brainstormed the Underline/formerly Greenlink), she was a marketing whiz at EWM Realty International.Thank you so much Meg for your vision, energy, and spirit! Good luck to the five design teams competing to design the masterplan for the Underline: Balmori Associates, Dlandstudio, and James Corner Field Operations, all from New York, Perkins + Will, and Stoss, from Boston.
